i used the 10 string on everyone of the owl cambridge tunes on the myspace. its one of the koren "perfect 10" models. KILLER AX!!!
the 6 sting bich and mockingbird are the calibre classic series. i got them new in 07 and they are incredible. the wood is so alive! every note rings... they were hand built in the czech republic and supposedly the best guitars that arent built in the usa custom shop. the woods are way more resonant and the necks feel much more solid than the perfect 10...
Not a huge fan of the more metal stuff they do... I knew a guy with a Beast, and that thing would stab you in the leg and chest at the same time. Just terrible to play.
For over-the-top designs, I prefer Moser. They're better designed, and usually even weirder which makes them more fun.
The guitarist in my doomed post-punk project, that I played drums in, had one of those horrible black Warlocks with a patch on it that said "I'm so METAL!" or something ironic to that effect.

There is something about them that makes me think of Roger Dean album cover artwork but I like BC Riches in a completely non-ironic way. Fuck irony. I'm bored of the Gibson/Fender guitar shapes that get endlessly repeated. And I like the 24 fret neck and funky electronics.

Mockingbird, eigth string Bitch, Warlock are all classics when it comes to body shape... and the Ironbird bass is the evil twin of Thunderbird.
As with ANY brand offering instrument in several quality lines to reach both budget buyers and the more demanding customers, the quality range of the instruments is brooooooooooad. And vintage is always, well, vintage.

My feeling toward BC Rich guitars is kind of like the 12 year old boy and his moms Victoria secrets catalog; I want to look and play with it but I’m afraid some one might catch me.
Hey I have this comm'n my way And I have a beast neck that I'm going to make work with it. Most likely pop a led in it and I have a feeling the pickups...

That's fuckin' sexy, right there. I want one of those neck-thru Mockingbirds, with the ebony board and cloud inlays. I remember seeing them in Musician's Fiend a couple years ago. A lot like MLC's, but the body was stained darker.

Yeah, I totally sold on neck throughs. I use to know a girl who had a really old one with koa wings, it was very nice.
